What's your booze of choice for creating things?

Beer turns off my internal editor, so I like to keep a steady buzz while I brainstorm and pre-write. I typically re-write sober, though.

Something clear and strong that smells like a russian anaesthetic. Rubbing alcohol. Dandelion moonshine. Violet hooch. The distilled teardrops of upset koala bears. Um, just tea usually.

I used to drink Wild Turkey. Lots of Wild Turkey. Enough to make Metal Machine Music sound really good.
Now I drink Diet Pepsi.
Sometimes I fantasize about Kubler Absinthe.

There is that much Wild Turkey in the world?

If there's enough brandy to make me think that The Mack is the finest film I've ever seen, there's enough Wild Turkey to improve Metal Machine Music. Though The Mack is a hell of a lot better than ...
And gwferguson, Kubler is the best absinthe I've ever had. Just beautiful. Though I've not yet tried the Jade line, which everyone seems to love.

Whatever beer is in the fridge, and jack & coke.
I'm really itching to have absinthe for the first time. Thankfully, it's quite legal in Tokyo so I'll be doing that when I get there.

I like Johnny Walker Gold scotch whiskey, very good.

Chill a glass with ice and water.

Take six parts gin (six measures normally, though a half dose works), Bombay Saphire's fine, recently got into Blackwoods (but really anything better than the gut rot that is Gordon's). 1 part dry Vermouth, Noilly Prat if you've got it but Martini extra dry works (less interesting but dryer). Pour both into a cocktail shaker, also full of ice, stir provokatively.

Chuck the ice and water from your now frosty glass and pour in the gin and vermouth. Serve with a twist of lemon if you're feeling fruity or, as I by far prefer, as many olives as I can fit in the glass (cocktail olives, pimento or chilli stuffed works too and make sure brine's involved, some bars actually wash the brine off the olive, which completely misses the point).

This is what I'll drink as I'm putting something to bed, last page or whatever, and I enjoy the ritual of making it as much as the salty, boozy nector itself.

I've just sank a couple while watching The Departed, I love everything.]]>

I'm with Paul & Will on this one: no drinking on the job, at least not as a habit.
Going through layouts and e-mail, however.. Johnny Walker blue label or a 30yr port are a must.

I don't drink too much on the job, at least not usually.
The husband brings me bourbon sometimes, however.
It does not take much for me to feel the effects. Then again, it never has.

I can't really manage to read while drunk, so I don't think I could write more then a few words. My ADD is really bad to.

Bourbon to sit down and pound out a couple pages of what passes for prose.

Saki to pen some lines of poetry.

Colt 45s, which are the nastiest, most vile imitation of cheap beer imaginable, come in convenient one-and-a-half litre bottles for $6 CDN, and work wonders for essays and vengeful rantings. Usually have to switch to the mini-cassette recorder after two or three of those, though; for some reason my fingers stop working (not that my mouth is doing much better).]]>

A shaken martini is a weak and watery martini.
Not that I'd touch them anyway, as I loathe gin. But a shaken vodka martini is a disgusting thing.

I think I am with Spider on this one. Alcohol is not the least bit creative any more than huffing gas or glue. I don't really enjoy quality hallucinogens but feel sometimes they give you that change ...
Now some good outdoor grown organic pot is great for helping ideas flow a bit better but the heavier indoor hydro can be to much of a good thing if you actually want to accomplish anything. I hate speed and coke but some people have had good results. I LOVE opiates but they absolutely KILLED my sex drive and are quite habit forming both physically and psychologically. Personally I don't understand why one harmful drug alcohol is good while other less harmful drugs like pot or even heroin are considered bad?]]>
